Abstract
This study aims to determine the mindfulness and healthy eating self-efficacy levels of adolescents according to their sports status. For this reason, healthy eating self-efficacy scale for children and mindfulness scale for adolescents were used in our study. After the scale data were collected by convenience sampling method, homogeneity results and cronbach alpha values were calculated. Then, the results of the study were obtained by MANOVA analysis. According to the results of the analysis, it has been determined that the ones with the highest value are male adolescent students who do sports. In addition, it has been concluded that doing sports has a positive effect on female students both on conscious awareness and on healthy eating self-efficacy levels. These results show that doing sports can provide significant physical and psychological benefits for adolescents.
